Prince Harry, is that you?

Rob Lowe dished on his possible Duke of Sussex sighting during the Jan. 11 episode of The Late Late Show. According to the actor, he recently spotted Harry at a stoplight near their homes in Montecito, Calif.

"He lives about a mile from me," Rob explained. "He's been very reclusive. Seeing him in the neighborhood is like seeing the Loch Ness Monster, and I finally saw him. I finally saw him driving his car."

In fact, The West Wing alum said he "may have a scoop" for royal admirers. "It was very, very quick," he noted. "Don't totally quote me on it, but it looked like he's wearing a ponytail. I'm just saying. It looked to me, as a casual observer, that his hair had grown very long and was pulled back very tightly by what I can only assume was a ponytail."

However, James Corden, who actually attended Harry and Meghan Markle's royal wedding, had his doubts. "I'm certain that isn't true," the late-night host said. "You know what I think happened? I think you didn't see Prince Harry."

How Meghan Markle Forever Changed the Royal Family

Still, Rob seemed pretty confident. "Oh no, it was him," he insisted. "Because I have to say, I followed him to the house to see if the car went in."

Meghan, who is from California, and Harry moved into their new home in July 2020, just a few months after they officially stepped back as senior members of the royal family. Since then, they've continued to carve their own path. From forming a deal with Netflix and launching their nonprofit Archewell to volunteering and continuing to raise their 20-month-old son Archie Harrison, they've stayed very busy.

And hey, it looks like they have Rob as a neighbor!
